Cattle Embryo Transfer Procedure: An Instructional Manual for the Rancher, Dairyman, Artificial Insemination Technician, Animal Scientist, and Veterinarian PDF. This comprehensive, step-by-step laboratory training manual brings all the elements for a successful embryo transfer program together in a simple, organized, illustrated format. For the last several decades, artificial insemination has allowed genetic progress to be achieved relatively quickly through the widespread and efficient use of frozen semen. As a result of the advancement of embryo transfer (ET) techniques, cows can produce many offspring. A more rapid genetic gain is achieved which complements an artificial insemination program.
